Cliff Dixon, the ex-boyfriend of Love & Hip Hop star Erica Mena has died after being shot while partying during his birthday in Atlanta. He was 32.

According to TMZ, Police say Dixon was partying at the SL Lounge in Atlanta when a lone gunman opened fire in front of the nightclub around 1 a.m. Thursday. Authorities are unclear if Dixon was the target of the slaying.

Dixon and Mena dated for ten months back in 2018, with plenty of ups and downs along the way. The pair were arrested in October during a domestic dispute where Dixon reportedly kicked in a door to get to Mena during an argument. They were taken to jail in Johns Creek, Georgia outside of Atlanta after neighbors called the police during their altercation.

The police report at the time, witnesses who heard the fight "heard someone get slapped." But police did not find any visible marks on either person, only arresting Dixon for criminal trespassing after it was reported he'd kicked through the door. The property belonged to Mena who admitted to possessing marijuana inside the home, leading to her arrest as well.
